Through TPM, more companies accept the concept of Zero Breakdowns as achievable. From the foundation of zero breakdowns, world class plants are able to run for complete shifts without the need for intervention. TPM is still pushing back the boundaries of what was thought possible. Driven by the proven principles of TPM, the book emphasises the need to build on existing good practices and to win commitment by delivering results. The book provides a practical guide to delivering TPM benefits and is based on the authors' first hand experience of seeing TPM in Japan. It adapts these benefits to suit the strategic needs of companies across four continents. "TPM A Route to World Class Performance" builds on Peter Willmott's earlier book, "TPM the Western Way", updating the scope of applications and tools. The TPM route map is updated to include the journey to zero breakdowns and beyond. It also provides a systematic structure to evolve from the classic Total Productive Maintenance towards Total Productive Manufacturing and deliver a Totally Productive Operation capable of world leading performanceElectronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutionsTotal productive maintenance.Plant maintenanceQuality controlElectronic books.localMcCarthy, Dennisauthorhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut62451Original07506444789780750644471(DLC) 00049405(OCoLC)45129064Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750644471An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information.b1365114603-03-2224-01-08991003223229707536TPM1463911UNISALENTOle02624-01-08m@ -engenk00
